I coined a word Friday night at dinner. I found one hit for the word (using apparently roughly the same definition) on Google, so I guess I wasn't the world-first to come up with it. It's a useful word, though. Feel free to add it to your permanent vocabulary.
homoindicative—giving signs that a person is likely to be gay
"Did you see Jane in that leather jacket on her motorcycle?" "Yeah, that's pretty homoindicative, don't you think?"

Does it make etymological sense? No. But then neither does homophobia, and that caught on. I will use it.
Actually, in the example you gave (Jane in a leather jacket on a motorcycle), I might even go with "lesboindicative." ;-)
But hey, "homoindicative" works for me too.
It's also a bit of a quine; using the word is itself.
